Dhandhang Gulo Love Song Behind The Aksara Jawa (Javanese Alphabet)

An Illustration Book Explain Every Single Javanese Alphabet's Meaning
This is a work for my college final assignment, the design of  Java Script Basics Illustration Book for Teenager. 

The issue which is examined is how to make a simple, communicative, and enjoyable Java Script Basics Illustration Book for Teenagers so it can make teenager like the Java Script. The Java Script is the authentic asset as an image in globalisation competition.

All the time the city government has introduced the Java Script scientifically to teenager since in the elementary school and it has also been used for the street’s name sign and in a public place, but it has not been able to increase the interest of teenager specifically in order to like more as a part of a culture that can represent their image. It is unfortunate for teenager to study foreign script for their image hard. 

For the reason above, so it is made the information media to communicate its potential. Visual Communication Media that represents the Java Script to teenager relaxed and contemporary which is suitable with their condition so it can be accepted easily so they know that something which is traditionally it must not always traditional and stritch nuance, but it can be also with more contemporary visual.

Based on Dhandhang Gulo, a love song made by Pakubuwono IX (Pakubuwono IX was the ninth Susuhunan. He was born in 1830, the second son of Pakubuwano VI, and reigned from 1861 until his death in 1893). 
He use this song to socialize Javanese Alphabet to young people on that time.

Dhandhang = tool for farming like hoe and Gulo = Sugar, it means we should work hard to achieve sweet result, in this case Pakubuwono IX use parable of love from boy to girl, 
boy is “we” and the girl is “our obligation”, 
it is like the qoute “do what you love,love what you do” to bring out the best in us.

Javanese Alphabet usually called by people as HA-NA-CA-RA-KA (the first five alphabet from 20 alphabet)

_Atmosphere: Trends in Indonesian Graphic Design, Illustration and Photography


In partnership with creative web portal GrafisMasaKini, Serbia-based art production company 80|10 present Atmosphere, a joint exhibition of six Indonesian visual artists, graphic designers, photographers and illustrators to represent “new” and young Indonesian creative scene. The six artists have been closely selected to represent narratives that are contextualized within Indonesian cultural frame, but at the same time can easily be understood by the Serbian audience.
The aim of the exhibition is to break down prejudice and ignorance about Indonesia and the desire to show this area from a different perspective than usual. Distant, “exotic” countries like Indonesia are often shown as “banana republics”, as rural areas and/or jungle, often associated with economic and social underdevelopment. The exhibition examines the dialogue of Indonesian artists through their works with their own culture and how they adapt their ideas to the cultural heritage while maintaining its creative character and features.

Love Letter to Mako Mori

Hai Hai

Cukup lama juga tidak mengupdate blog ini, selama tiga bulan yang lalu cukup disibukan(banget :P) dengan Tugas Akhir...Puji Tuhan sudah selesai dengan memuaskan :)

(mungkin pos selanjutnya saya pos tentang tugas akhirnya)


Oke, langsung aja
beberapa hari yang lalu saya menonton Pacific Rim 
Bagi saya pribadi film ini sangat WAH! haha 
sejak awak sampai akhir film saya sangat menikmatinya.
bahkan terkadang saya bertepuk tangan pelan sambil mengumpat eh..maksud saya bersyukur sana sini :)) 

Film ini menggabungkan berbagai macam memori masa kecil saya tentang 
Japanese giant robots, Ultraman, dan Godzilla. Saya sangat setuju dengan pendapat Hideo Kojima tentang merasakan sensasi yang sama seperti menyaksikan Jurassic Park untuk pertama kalinya(sampai sekarang saya masih menikmati dan kagum juga sih kalo nonton lagi). Selebihnya saya tidak akan bercerita banyak tentang film ini, selain menghindari spoiler, kalian juga kalo googling bakal dengan mudah menemukan berbagai review tentang film ini hehe....tapi...oke lah..ini saya sekalian bagi link review-review nya :


Why Pacific Rim Doesn't Look Like Any Movie You've Ever Seen Before

Illustrasi yang saya buat kali ini boleh dibilang a love letter to Mako Mori :3
salah satu tokoh perempuan berkebangsaan Jepang, pilot Jaeger, dan ..entah mengapa saya merasa dia mirip dengan Ayanami Rei hehehe (akhir-akhir ini baru saya tau ternyata untuk versi dubbing Jepangnya, Mako di dub oleh Megumi Hayashibara -Neon Genesis Evangelion's Rei Ayanami )

Untuk pertama kalinya saya akan menunjukan proses saya dalam membuat ilustrasi, mari kita mulai :
*eits sebelumnya play ini dulu biar makin asik 
Pacific Rim - Full Official Soundtrack


1. Sketch menggunakan pensil di kertas


2. Scanning it, dirapikan di Photoshop, lalu di print di sekala yang lebih besar untuk detailing dan final artwork versi hitam putih(masih pensil dan kertas).

3.Coloring di Photoshop.


lalu ini dia Final Artworknya :



dear Rinko Kikuchi uh..I mean Mako Mori, If I'm Kaiju and you are the Jaeger, you punch me so hard so I fall for you. 
So will you piloting Jaeger with me 



thank you, see you again
best regards
